London Kensington

Inside, the apartments echo South Kensington’s refined charm. Drawing from the area’s elegant townhouses, leafy mews, and gallery culture, interiors blend warm, earthy tones and rattan textures with sleek black details—lifted by playful flashes of colour inspired by local art and exhibitions.

Think soft upholstery, smart built-ins, and an ultra-comfortable fold-out sofa bed that appears when needed. It’s South Kensington through Bob’s eyes: polished, welcoming, and brimming with quiet creative energy.

No more check-in queues and lost keycards. Check in online before you arrive. Access your room using just your phone.

You will find a luggage storage room on the ground floor by the entrance way.  Guests are able to store store their luggage:

“Booking/confirmation number”

“Booking ID”

“Reservation number”

Do I need to add my credit card to the check-in form?

Only if you want to book extras, like breakfast, or if you'll be staying in one of the city tax locations seen here.

Bob's Tips for Parking in London 💡

ULEZ is London-Wide! The Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) covers ALL London boroughs. This means most vehicles need to meet specific emission standards to avoid a daily charge. Check your vehicle's status on the Transport for London (TfL) website before you travel. This applies 24/7.

Congestion Charge Zone (CCZ): We are OUTSIDE the central Congestion Charge Zone. However, if your travel plans involve driving into more central areas of London, you might enter it, so check your route.

Tube & Bus It? Earl's Court Tube station (District and Piccadilly Lines) and West Brompton Station (District Line & Overground/National Rail) are nearby, offering fantastic connections across London, including direct to Heathrow. It's often the easiest and quickest way to explore the city once you've settled in.

Still got questions or need a bit more guidance on parking your motor? Just give us a shout. We're always happy to help!

Please read Bob's house rules carefully. If you break them, you will be charged a fine and/or your booking will be terminated – and no one wants that!
Respect your neighbours. You're sharing the building with other guests and residents. Be aware of your noise levels and keep things tidy. Quiet hours are 10 pm - 8 am daily.
‍
No parties or any events that might disturb other guests. We know, parties are fun, but people need their rest too.
‍
No pets, unless otherwise confirmed in advance by Bob W in writing. Just reach out with questions!
‍
Shoes off inside. Not only does this reduce noise for your neighbours, but it also keeps the apartment clean and in good shape.
‍
No smoking, even on balconies. Please use marked outdoor smoking areas.
‍
No drugs or use of any illegal substances. If we find a reason to believe this is happening during or after your stay, you will be reported to the local authorities and that’d be a major bummer.
‍
No rubbish in the hallways. Please check your apartment for instructions on how to deal with rubbish and recycling.
‍
Respect our cleaners. Although each apartment is thoroughly cleaned after check-out, please pick up after yourself and use common sense when leaving. If you leave a big mess that takes extra time to clean up, you’ll be charged.
‍
Keep to your check-in and check-out times. Your last-minute schedule changes impact our cleaners and other guests.
‍
Report any possible damage you see in the apartment during your stay so Bob can fix it.
‍
You are always fully responsible to pay for damages caused by you, your guests or pets. Any violations of the law or fraudulent activities will result in immediate termination of your booking and will be reported to the local police for further investigation. It’s Bob’s responsibility to make sure all guests are safe and have a good time! Thanks for your understanding and for helping us out with this.
